Frame paint

#1 PostAuthor: Paul Mc » Wed Feb 05, 2014 11:11 am

Hi,
I've got my 73 Z1 stripped and wondered if anyone could point me towards a good company,hopefully in the north west of England to paint the frame,swinging arm and yokes etc.
Also any recommendations on what type of paint to use would be great.
Many thanks.
Paul Mc

Paul,
Good to see you are painting the 73 Z1 frame rather than powder coating :wink:
You could paint it yourself with Eastwoods extreme chassis black gloss paint available from Frosts combined with their black primer I attained a good finish on my 73 Z1 frame.
Regards
Steve

Many thanks for that Steve. But I'm very tight space wise to do any painting,I'll have a good think though.
